Chapter 273: Destroying the Church
Zerg Breeding Ground.
Several Catachan tough guys moved rapidly through this jungle built of steel and concrete.
"Damn it, get out of the way!"
A Catachan tough guy stabbed a Catachan Combat Knife directly into the head of a Hormagaunt that had rushed over from a corner, then followed up with a fierce punch.
The Catachan Sergeant wearing a hat looked around, found that the surroundings were silent, and said to his teammates beside him.
"The survivors here have already been evacuated; let's hurry and finish off that heretic who is ringing the bell!"
But soon, these Catachan tough guys discovered something strange in an area surrounded by green viscous matter.
"Strange, I heard from that Cadian guy that there were some Human corpses in a wide area with green viscous matter. But now, there is nothing here except for some body traces and bloodstains."
The Catachan Sergeant stopped, crouched down to examine the situation, and the other Catachan tough guys, seeing this, immediately raised the Laser Guns in their hands to guard the surroundings.
"The corpses here have disappeared; is some kind of beast being kept here too?"
Seeing there were no useful clues, the Catachan Sergeant could only stand up and order the continuation of the Task.
Inside the Church.
Zakeboge felt a chill in his heart after seeing that the Breeding Ground he was in had become extremely chaotic.
Not only had he failed to complete the Task given to him by Mother God, but his Breeding Ground had also been attacked by a unit of unknown origin.
That unit did not look like a Human Alliance unit, but they were indeed saving the Human survivors here.
The red-robed cultists sent to carry out the Task of recovering the corpses of those Human soldiers had also suffered heavy losses, and no matter how he begged, they were unwilling to help him.
"What should I do? Mother God will surely not forgive me, what should I do? Right! If I just blend in with the survivors and escape from here, wouldn't I be able to avoid punishment?"
A sharp glint flashed in Zakeboge's eyes, and he spoke excitedly.
Zakeboge nervously glanced at the eerie pattern on the Church wall and prepared to leave the Church on tiptoe.
Just then, a red light erupted from the Church wall, illuminating the entire interior of the Church.
Zakeboge, who had been tiptoeing, felt his heart skip a beat for no reason when he saw the blood-red light shining inside the Church, but regardless of what was happening, he turned and ran.
The eerie pattern quickly seeped blood, catching up to Zakeboge at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Looking at the Church gate close at hand, Zakeboge unwillingly stretched out his right hand, wanting to touch the door handle.
At this moment, the blood imprisoned Zakeboge's legs as if it had some kind of magic, spread upward along his thighs, began to wrap around Zakeboge's body, and spread toward the right hand Zakeboge had stretched out; the bright red blood wrapped around that arm, and Zakeboge's pupils constricted as he let out a fearful cry.
"Uh... ahhh!"
Finally, the blood completely wrapped around Zakeboge, the liquid slowly formed a jelly-like, bouncy oval, eventually forming a Zerg egg 7~8 meters in size, and the shadow inside had already begun to appear and disappear.
After about 5 minutes, the Zerg egg began to crack, and an Alien Race walked out with two pairs of sharp forelimbs, its body covered in heavy, spiked armor; its six scarlet eyes examined everything around it, the four lips of its mouth constantly opening and closing, and fresh red blood was flowing down from the Zerg legs supporting the ground.
Its jet-black appearance allowed it to crash through the Church, and a pair of wings appeared on its back, constantly flapping.
Just as it was examining the situation around it, several Laser Beams shot toward it, hitting its thick armor; feeling the scorching heat transmitted from the armor and the smoking crater on the armor, this Zerg quickly dove downward, pouncing toward those muscular tough guys wearing red headscarves.
"Damn it! This Alien's armor is this thick? Watch out, it's coming!"
Within a distance of tens of meters, the Zerg quickly flew in front of a Catachan tough guy, and a sharp Bone Blade stabbed toward the Catachan tough guy's abdomen.
Relying on the instinctual reaction that had saved him many times, this Catachan tough guy immediately dodged, and upon realizing he could not completely avoid this Alien's attack, he gripped his Catachan Combat Knife tightly in his right hand and slashed fiercely at this Alien.
The other Catachan tough guys saw this and wanted to help their teammate, but they were a step too late.
This Catachan tough guy's left arm was still struck by the Zerg's Bone Blade, but the sturdy muscles directly jammed the Zerg's Bone Blade.
The powerful diving force caused this Catachan tough guy to be dragged a distance by the Zerg, and the Catachan Combat Knife in his right hand also slashed at the connection point of the Zerg's Bone Blade.
This slash hit exactly at the gap between the two pieces of the Zerg's armor, and as the Catachan Combat Knife was pulled out, dark green blood was also brought out.
Another slash followed, which finally cut off the Zerg's Bone Blade; this Catachan tough guy steadied his figure, wanting to pull the Bone Blade out of his left shoulder.
After this Zerg felt the pain, the remaining three Bone Blades stabbed toward this Human.
But the other Catachan tough guys had already rushed over and used their Catachan Combat Knives to directly cut off the Zerg legs supporting this Zerg.
The Zerg, having lost its balance, had its attack go wide and did not hit the injured Catachan tough guy.
Seeing these Humans wearing red headscarves actually cut off its legs, the Zerg instinctively prepared to take off.
The Catachan Sergeant wearing a hat seized the opportunity and directly slashed at the connection point between the Zerg's wings and its body.
This caused the Zerg that had just taken flight to fall to the ground again; this time, it was of no use for the Zerg to try to attack these Catachan tough guys with the remaining three Bone Blades.
The sharp Catachan Combat Knife directly cut its Bone Blades off from the connection points, and the Catachan Sergeant even aimed his Laser Gun at the struggling Zerg's head and pulled the trigger.
The Zerg's struggling movements came to an abrupt halt, and it slowly collapsed to the ground.
"How is it? Is the arm injury serious?"
The Catachan Sergeant came to the injured Catachan tough guy and asked.
"It hit the bone, but it won't affect current operations."
After simple bandaging, a blood-stained bandage appeared on the Catachan tough guy's left arm.
Subsequently, this Catachan Squad entered the Church that the Alien had just rushed out of, looking at the eerie pattern inside that was emitting a blood-red light.
The leading Catachan Sergeant dared not take action; everyone was at the entrance of this Church, and it gave them a very bad feeling; their body's instinctual reactions told them it was dangerous here and they should evacuate, but considering the Emperor's will, the leading Catachan Sergeant said to his team members.
"This place gives me a very bad feeling; let's just blow up this Church!"
